![DIY - Rope bowl nähen I Rope basket I Seilkorb nähen I How to [GERMAN]](/img/1.gif)
Have made oodles of baskets under your guidance..before l found the lid application l tried on my own..my husband could not stop laughing at the result..after making a lid with your help..my husband just smiled and said…good job..thank you Patty for your help..🇨🇦
Thanks for sharing your great story. You showed him huh! Glad I was able to help you perfect the lid.
I use Fray Check it’s a clear sewing type glue to cover the frayed ends also at the beginning. I let it dry over night or a few hours and it works great.
Thanks for sharing!! Yes, fray check works great too!
Hi Patti. Thank you for your comprehensive tutorials. This is the first time I've subscribed to anything, but you, I want to hear from! I took a class to learn the basics, but have returned many times to watch your videos for more instruction. I made a big bowl for my daughter for Christmas and my granddaughter was blown away. It's so nice when you can impress a college girl! One thing the teacher did was to i) clip the end of the rope with sharp scissors for a clean edge, ii) scrunch the cotton down to reveal an inner nylon cord (not all rope has this), iii) snip off about a 1/4" of the nylon, then iv) release & gently smooth the cotton back over the space. This makes it more malleable, thus easier to smush it down at the start.
Thanks for watching and glad you have enjoyed my tutorials. Yes indeed. It helps to get rid of the synthetic core for beginnings and endings for sure. The more we all make the baskets the more we learn.
I learned how to make rope bowls & baskets from you & I love these bowls with lids, I'll try this next. One thing I do that you might be interested in is instead of wrapping the rope with tape to begin, I wrap it a few rounds with the same color thread. It holds the rope together & is almost impossible to see. Thanks for all you do!
Glad I was able to get you started and that is a great idea for starting the rope bowls. Thanks for sharing. That’s the whole idea to learn from fellow crafters and share our ideas and then it can just get better and better.
That's a good idea about joining with same color thread
Thank you for your absolute step-by-step instructions! This is probably the best channel on RUclips!
Thanks so much Teresa for your wonderful comment. Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!
Thank you, your tutorial is so detailed, it’s very much appreciated. You are calm and make it enjoyable, not rushed. True artist.💕
Thank you so much!
I love to see you make beautiful rope baskets.
Thanks so much Lucille!
Instead of going around your whole machine for the mouth, you can take the basket off the machine, move the stack of books or whatever, put your machine at the end of the table so the basket can hang downward, and sew the mouth around the base of the machine instead, if you want it smaller.
Always lots of ways to get the job done! Thanks for your suggestion for all the viewers.

So nice to see someone sewing on a Viking. I managed a sewing center for 10mish years. Nothing compares to Viking. Love your tutorial.
Oh wow! Thanks for your fun comment!
What a great instructional video! Thanks a million for sharing your techniques!
Glad it was helpful!
I have made baskets like this but never had a lid attached. Job well done.
Glad you like it!
Very nicely done and explained. Thanks
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed the tutorial.
Thanks for all your great videos! I've been making baskets like crazy! Even had my 12 yr old grandaughter making a bowl today!
Its very addicting isn't it! Glad your grand daughter is enjoying it as well!
What I like to do when I get started with the rope bowl and the presser foot is uneven I put a short piece of scrap rope at the back of the presser foot to even things out during those first few stitches.
That works too. Thank you for sharing your tip for all of us.
Thank you so much for you videos and the time spent to teach. Learning a lot from your channel!!🥰😍🤩
I'm so glad!
Great thorough tutorial Patti thank you
You are so welcome!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍Just one thumb up for this isn't enough. Thank you ever so much Patti. Oh, my brain is going a hundred miles an hour with ideas. No rope on hand so will be waiting till I get some ordered or get to shop for some when we get to a larger town then where we go mostly. I will have to settle for watching more of your videos on same subject. You know learn all I can, oh plus I thought I had subscribed and I noticed that isn't the case so that will be done ASAP. May God bless your weekend.
Thanks for watching the videos! So many things you can do with these rope balls. It really is endless. My head spins with ideas too!
Your instructions are great
Thank you
Thanks so much!
WOW. I am inspired. Thanks for your easy to follow instructions
Happy I inspired you! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Hi Patti. I just made my first basket thanks to you. Easy peasy thanks your excellent instructions.
Yeah! You will be addicted now!
I'm ready the other comments and they are saying it's not that big a deal in so many ways. Girl it is an art and I don't take this lightly at all my mouth was dropped the whole time they are the most beautiful craft I've seen in a long time. I would like to try but that curving thing would get me. I just don't know kudos to those able to whip them out and so many the 12 yr old should be very proud too
Thanks for posting your supportive comment Andrea. It is a fun and creative art form and of course with practice you will be able to make beautiful bowls and baskets.
@CraftyPatti~ Thank you for so generously providing us such incredibly detailed tutorials on rope baskets! I think you do a fantastic job of filming this very detailed sewing process, in fact, I don't think a professional filming crew could capture it any better! I was wondering, when you join the two ropes together, would applying a just a drop of "Fray Check" to the ends of each rope, help to wrangle all those fluffy bits of cotton for you? I have no idea if it would work or not, but I know it's generally transparent and doesn't discolor cotton fabric. Thank you again for sharing your talent with us! ~~Christy~~
Thanks for your lovely comment. Yes, you could definitely use fray check to join your ropes but I would let it dry first so when your sewing needle goes through it doesn’t muck up your machine with glue.
OMG PATTI…this was so stunning and off I go to try to make this. You do beautiful work and your voice is super relaxing. Will give it a try and am going to order your cording. Great job!
Yeah! So happy you like it. Enjoy making your baskets in all shapes and sizes!
Thank you for this great video, I ll have to watch it a couple of times before I tackle it. 👍👍
Any time! Enjoy!
Hi! I am delighted with your work! You explain very well. Do you have a video teaching how to calculate the amount of rope to be used in each basket according to dimensions, height, width.
No I don’t have a video on calculating rope for baskets but here’s some estimations for you. Sorry I am in inches and yds.
Basket 9” wide x 8.5” height will use about 33 yds
Basket 9” wide x 13” height will use about 50 yds
Basket 11” wide x 16” height will use about 66 yds.
Hopefully that helps a bit.
Your bowls are amazing! Thx for sharing!
Glad you like them!
I love these, haven't had the nerve to try it yet. 🙃
You should try it!
Start with just a hot pad, they are very useful.
I also use fray check. In addition, I use a silk like cloth tape. I wrap it once around, then clip it very close and then use fray check. You really can’t see it. It’s great!
Thanks Kathy for your hints!
Thank you for this fantastic manual! I love this basket 🙂 They are so practical and nice and I am so happy for your manual.
Greetings from the Czech Republic ❤️
Your very welcome. Thanks for taking the time to write a lovely comment.
Very beautiful work. And your explanation is nice easy understandable. Thank you for sharing liked your creativity.
Thanks so much. Glad it was understandable.
Thank you for a very informative tutorial.
Your very welcome. Thanks for watching!
These would probably make great casserole covers for transporting to a friend’s or family’s home for get togethers.What do you think? Oh, l’ve got to watch more of your videos. Yay, what fun!!!
Yes that work great for a round casserole dish. Just make straight sides so you can get the dish in. Enjoy watching more videos. I certainly have lots on my channel!
Great demonstrations, clear and concise, thank you
Thanks so much Janice!
Thank you, Patti - this video is very timely for me. I have made most of your other examples already and wow, this is really an addictive outlet for creativity and relaxation! I had seen the baskets made with lids but wasn’t quite sure how that was done and…. Here you are with another helpful tutorial. You have a really nice teaching manner. I was wondering what I was going to make next - off to check out that Buffalo rope! Thank you…
The baskets are so addicting for sure. So many options to change it up. Watch out! I have another rope bowl video coming up in about a week and a half. More ideas for you! Thanks for watching!
Great tutorial! Thank you so much.
Your very welcome. Thanks for watching?

Hola en Cuba. ¡He viajado a Cuba y me ha encantado! ¡Gracias por ver mi video!
Hello inCuba. I have travelled to Cuba and I
loved it. Thanks for watching my video!
Another great video. I wondering why you didn't use tape this time. It looks so much cleaner. But understand you are showing to a large audience. Made my first basket last night. I have learned so much from you. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent!
I had a comment from a viewer who didn't want to use tape as she was concerned it would discolour over time or disintegrate. So I try to please all and did a video with no tape.
Glad that you have learned lots and have made a basket. You will be addicted now!
Very nice job ... thanks a lot
Your very welcome!
Your channel is a true treasure my dear lady, Thank you so much for sharing this amazing tutorial, I already subscribed & liked your video 😊👏👏
Wish you all the best... 🌷
Thanks so much Nada for your sweet comment. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Very beautiful
Thanks so much!
Thanks for this idea,
I would like to make a baby basket
Oh a rope baby bassinet would be awesome!
Your videos are the best! I am having a hard time finding rope I like. My local Ace hardware stopped selling the Ace rope that you show in this video and is my favorite. They have gone to a less sturdy rope that is almost brown.
go p
Oh no! I buy a lot of my rope from Amazon and I do like the Buffalo brand.
You can order the rope Ace sells online. You don’t have to go to Ace
Excellent video. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great teacher.
Wow, thank you
I made one but didn't have the same cord as you, so it was a bit flimsy. With that, I got some spray on starch and gave it a couple coats and it worked out alright. Not as sturdy as yours of course, but it does work. Next one will be using your link to get the sturdier cord. Thanks so much for your detailed tutorials on your baskets. I absolutely love making these!
Good that you were able to starch up your basket and have success. I’m sure you will be making many more now. Addictive for sure!
Could you have just stitched all over. Back and forth to make stronger?
I can’t wait to give this a try!
Have fun with it. The shapes will be endless!
Son hermosas creaciones. Oj Ala algún día tenga esa excelente habilidad y me queden así como sus creaciones. ❤❤❤
Thanks!
Perhaps a little fray block or fray check on the end would tame the starting end. Beautiful baskets!
Yes fray check works for finishing any ends.
What a great video! What is your tension on? Please.
Thank you!
I use the regular setting for my needle tension which is about 4.
Happy New Year Crafty Patti! Believe it or not I welcomed in 2023 making a set of rope coasters and a small bowl/box to hold them as a birthday gift for a fellow Capricorn. I'm hoping to be able to create a yarn bowl -- I think several of my knitters/crocheter family members and friendss will like them. I really appreciate your videos...Do you have video on how you dye your rope? I'm thinking that is something I would like to do as well - especially if I can get some indigo efffects going on / with the rope. Thanks so much for sharing your talents and skills with us.❤
Great way to start of the New Year with sewing up some coasters and gifts!
I have published a video on dying rope and macrame cord. Here’s the link. HOW TO - DYE MACRAME CORD & ROPE - WITH RIT LIQUID DYE

I also have on my list to do another dying video of rope baskets in the future. Keep an eye open for that one.
@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts Thanks!
The easiest way to solve the end fraying issue is to stick the end of your glue gun into the cut/frayed end and give It a little squeeze. It will stabilize the fibers so you can shape or trim them. It doesn’t show at all! Enjoying your videos!,
Yes, you could do that. I just don’t like sewing through glue. It gums up your needle and can break your needle if the glue is too thick. But I would use Fray Check which is made for sewing projects.
I made your first basket with the 1/4 cord from ACE without a problem. I bought the 1/4 buffalo cord and it has been bending needles like crazy.
Oh interesting! I love the Buffalo and never bent one needle. Sometimes the more confident we get the faster we sew and we may tend to pull on the cord to much which might cause the needles to break or bend.
Thank you . Very cool
Glad you liked it!
Thank you so nuch.
You're welcome!
Gorgeous!
Thank you! 😊
So very cute. Muy bello ❤️
Thank you!
I love your videos! : )
Aahhh. Thanks Elizabeth. Appreciate your support. Glad you like the videos!
Thank you for sharing your art 💞
Could I asked you about the best kind of sewing machine I coul get to start making basket
Hi Hoda, I have published a video on the proper tools to make rope bowls. I talk about sewing machines as well. Here’s the link if you want to have a look.
ruclips.net/video/8jrm5vwhXAc/видео.html
I have a Juki in the 6000 series. This machine has a great motor with no growelling at the start. I make bowls for Textures Craftworks in Hamilton Ontario Canada. I am going to try just straight rope like these. 🇨🇦
Crafty patty. I’m so addicted to watching your rope videos. I am finding that as I work my way up the sides they start to get smaller in the circle. I have a couple of questions please. How can I avoid this? Can i recover this and start to go wider? I am using a twisted rope rather than the diamond thread. Does this make a difference.?
The braided cord is much easier to use than the twisted cord.
This is quite often the area that a lot of sewers have a hard time with. But you will get it.
When you are ready to form your sides bring your base right up to the head of your sewing machine. Sew a couple of rounds. To aid in forming your sides you can lift the basket slightly off the bed of the machine with your left hand for a couple rounds. When you are assured that you are now forming your sides than let your basket rest on the bed of the machine again.
To continue to form straight sides make sure you are always holding your basket at a 90 degree angle to the bed of the sewing machine. Be consistent and don’t change the angle.
Continue to sew your sides holding the angle with your left hand and using your right fingers to keep the rows that you are sewing flat against the bed of the machine.
Practice makes perfect!
I’ve seen on other websites the person pulls back the end of the rope about an inch or so… cuts off the inside center cords and pulls the braided back over the cut cords and starts to wrap that way…. Just an idea 💡 😊😊😊😊
Thanks for sharing the idea!
Love this. I think I’ll try it. I assume I get the cord from the hardware store? Or the craft store?
Yes hardware or Amazon or wholesale rope shops.
Those look like bee hives. I would embroider bees around it!
They do don’t they. Great idea!
Like your rope basket & lid! What size needle do you use & what type of thread, buttonhole, upholstery, denim or just regular sewing thread & any particular weight of thread? Thank you! Enjoyed your tutorial...the lid is what drew me to your channel.
Glad the lid inspired you! I use 90/14 universal or denim needles and regular all purpose thread.
Lindo !!!!!!!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🇧🇷
Thank you!
Good work.
Can you please tell us
If I use nylon filled rope which is soft stuff then what will be the shape of bowl?
A lot of the laundry sash cord has a nylon core. Which is fine. The shape of the bowl is determined by how you angle the bowl as shown in the video.
Great video! Just what I was looking for. But I am wondering why you cut the rope before starting on the lid?
It is much easier to form the lid from the centre. Just like starting a rope bowl. I cut the rope and reattach when the lid is the right size. It would be cumbersome to try and sew the lid when it is attached to the bottom of the basket.
That makes perfect sense! Thanks for the explanation.
You could wrap thread round the ends really tightly I suppose.
That’s a great idea Lorraine! This is what I love about receiving comments and compiling great ideas together. One idea that leads to more great ideas.
That was great. But I don't know that I want to make an attached lid right now.....
I made this video mainly to show how to makes curves instead of straight sides and the lid was a bonus.
So its not patty’s fault you don’t feel like making the lid..she never asked you to..🇨🇦
Gorgeous 💖💖💖💖💖
Thanks so much!
Hi there! I've been having an issue with my bases constantly doming, any advice or suggestions? Super frustrating. I try to make a basket and it turns up so quickly that I end up with a flowerpot shape.
A couple suggestions. Don’t pull on the rope while sewing the rounds. Let it slide through your fingers. Use your left hand to always keep the base flat against the sewing bed.
Hey Patti, I’m trying to make a small planter and I want to keep the diameter always the same, like a cylinder. But it ends up getting bigger after each round and a get a bowl instead of a cylindrical planter. I hold it 90 degrees after I get the diameter I want and I don’t know where I am making the mistake. Can you help me with a tip ?
Once you have your base size and you lift your base right up to the side of the head of the machine then try lifting it slightly off the bed of the machine while still holding the 90 degree angle. After a couple rounds look and see if the sides are forming. If they are then you can lower the basket to the bed of the machine and remain holding the 90 degree angle. Place your fingers on the sides that are forming against the bed of the machine to insure it is staying flat to make your nice straight sides.
The nature of sewing this might make it hard. BUT have you tried sewing it with the inside going around your open leg area under the machine. Hey I am going to try my idea. Theoretically it sounds right. 🇨🇦
Love the video very easy to understand . One question- - - do you use a walking foot on your machine ? I have a Janome machine and its very good , but not sure it would cope with the thickness of the rope without a walking foot ?! maybe I should just buy and use one , as don't want to damage my machine .
I don’t use a walking foot. It’s easier to control the sewing with just a basic foot. When the presser foot is lifted up with the back presser foot lever, most machines will fit the 1/4” rope.
Wet end with white glue and it will dry and not fray or be seen
Yes, glue is an option for sure.
Hi Patti..question could you use E600 glue for the center the day before you start your bowl?
You could but go slowly so you don’t break your needle going through the hard set glue. But why wait a day. The method I have shown works fine without glue.
You can zigzag over the end, and it will search the ends
Yes that works too.
Do you have a video showing how to make a rope vase?
I have a lot of rope bowl videos but not a vase.
Try using a little starch to hold the ends together rather than the tape.
I will give it a try. Thanks for sharing.
супер!!!!браво!!!!
Translation:
great!!!! well done!!!!
Хвала вам!
Thank you!
Have you ever done a basket with leather handles
Not yet I haven’t.
Sew back and forth at the end then cut off the loose ends
That works great too!
hello Patti, i like your baskets very much, i am from Belgium. where can i buy that Buffalo cotton sash cord for making the same basket as you and does it exist in other colors please, thank you, greetings Rosita from Belgium
I buy the buffalo cord on Amazon.com. I have a link for it in the description box below the video.
Here’s the link:

@@CraftyPattiArtsCrafts thank you very much for the response. i have watched several tutorials and i like your style very much
So glad you like my style of teaching. Thanks for watching.
Does the machine not labour over such a thickness
My machine is fine and does not labor over the thickness.
Hello. Could one make a bowl with parachute rope?
Yes you could. Try and find a thicker cord though.
I am having the hardest time finding cotton cording a little larger than clothesline cord that is Not crazy expensive.
Yes, it can be depending where you live. 1/4” is all you need which I believe is also #8. Amazon, hardware stores, marine stores, boating stores, Walmart, online wholesale rope stores are some places to look.
I would like to get an idea how far one hank of cord goes. One bowl? or Two?
You can make 2 small to medium bowls or 1 large bowl with a 100ft hank of cotton rope.
Can you tell me what stitch width i would need to use for 8mm cord?
Probably the widest zig zag your machine will make.
I’m trying this and am in the process but my 1/4 cotton rope is so floppy compared to yours. Where do you purchase yours?
I buy my rope from Amazon. I find the Buffalo brand is stiffer. Here’s the link.

Thank you so much for the videos! I have a question, is there a way to contact you directly, maybe over Instagram or Mail? I am having some doubts!
You can email me at craftypatti60@gmail.com
Where do you source your rope do you have some places you shop
I buy my rope from my local hardware store and from Amazon. If you are wanting large quantities then you can try marine stores as well as rope shops online.
how would you make a small basket that gets narrower at the top but to small to bring over the top of the machine. tia
It’s possible but harder to do. You have to squish the basket down while sewing the sides and if you want to know how to get the bowl to become narrower than have a look at this video. HOW TO - SHAPE YOUR ROPE BOWLS - & ADD AN ATTACHED LID
ruclips.net/video/FVMRSmEHQhQ/видео.html
If your basket is pretty big how do you attach a new rope
How to join rope. There are lots of ways but here is some ideas.
Link to video: ruclips.net/video/R_EeBx9_UFs/видео.html
Go to time stamp 13:44.
I use tape to secure the frayed ends. If you don’t want to use tape you can buy fray check for fabric.
Instead of butting the ends of the rope, splice them. It will be neater and stronger.
Yes, lots of ways to join the rope. Thanks for your ideas.
How can I stiffen up my rope bowls?
Make sure you use 1/4” rope and not the 7/16”. It makes a big difference. Some brand of ropes are stiffer than others. The Buffalo brand is nice and stiff. If you have done all that than you can spray them with liquid starch that is used to stiffen collars on mens shirts.
Do you have an online shop with these ropes one pack would cost me 51€ (57$) in Germany. They must be cheaper in the US
No I don’t have an online store. $57 for one hank of rope for 100 feet is very expensive indeed! Yes, you have to shop around. It’s not cheap by any means. It costs me about $20 if I buy it from the hardware store but I can also buy it in bulk from marine stores. Not sure where you live but that’s a good place to look. Otherwise it’s Amazon.
❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Thank you so much!
What is the type of machine
I used my Husqvarna in this video.
Hi Can export these items to India
Don’t know. You would have to research that.
Hi can u please tell me what the size of the rope ?
I always use 1/4” rope. Just checked my supply list and I didn’t mention the size so thanks for bringing to my attention. Have added that info now.

The blue cord looks thicker
The buffalo brand of rope is thicker than the Ace brand. Even though they both say 1/4”.
Take out some of the center, about an inch.
Thanks for your comment.
